MILESTONE SCIENTIFIC ACQUIRES ADDITIONAL PATENT RIGHTS FOR PAINLESS INJECTIONS AND RESOLVES RELATED LITIGATIONS

Today, Milestone Scientific, the recognized leader in advanced injection technologies, announced that it has acquired additional patent rights with respect to painless anesthetic injections ˆ specifically rights related to controlling the flow rate or pressures used in providing these injections ˆ through issuance of 260,000 shares of restricted common stock.  In connection with this acquisition, Milestone also agreed to terminate its Declaratory Judgment action against Dr. Milton Hodosh related to claimed infringements of his patent rights and Dr. Hodosh agreed to terminate his existing infringement action against the Company.  Each party is responsible for their own attorney fees.
